An elderly Catholic deacon working as a chaplain at a Queens prison has been arrested for allegedly paying an inmate to perform sex acts on him.

The deacon, Frank DeTucci, 70, allegedly paid the male inmate $120 and $150 on two occasions to perform oral sex on him inside his chaplain’s office at the Queensboro Correctional Facility in Long Island City, sources said today.
